The Executive Secretariat transformations in Liquid Modernity Market Labor Impact due to Fluidity in Social Relations

Abstract

The constant economic, technological and administrative changes resulting from the modern era have had great impacts on social relations. According to Zygmunt Bauman, human relations went from solid to liquid, thus generating new, more flexible and fluid community ideologies. In this modern fluidity, more competitive corporate environments were formed, which narrowed the demand for trained professionals. For the Secretariat Professional, there have been tangible changes in their level of education, professional tasks performed and also in the essential skills for the job. Thus, the research aimed to understand the skills developed by secretariat professionals to deal with liquefied social relations, considering their performance in the labor market as a result of contemporaneity. Therefore, the general objective was to investigate how Liquid Modernity influences the secretariat profession and what are the impacts on its job market. In order to achieve this goal, a bibliographic review methodology was used, with the survey of books, magazines and articles, with qualitative character and content analysis that according to Gil (2008) and Severino (2010) result in the comprehension of the facts coming from the inquiry about the development of a certain area. Thus, starting from Bauman (2001), it was understood that if society were unchangeable and solidified, the professions, as well as the subjects would not be transformed to meet the new social demands, since these would not change either. It is an instigating theme because it highlights the changes in the secretariat profession, as well as the ability of such a professional to modify and expand the possibilities of the area of ??expertise.
